EVENT DETAILS

Jordan Rathus: Fernweh (Farsickness)With a history in television production, this Brooklyn artist plays with the tropes of reality TV, documentary film, and social media. In the case of Fernweh (Farsickness), she creates an installation of faux-travelogue videos about her recent trips to the Arctic Circle and Panama that plumb the mutual exploitation of tourism to a soundtrack of “My Girl” and “Paradise City.” Rathus’s joyful and refreshingly unironic humor shines particularly bright in a series of pin-up wall calendars where she’s photographed herself in satirical boudoir poses with and animal pelt in a hut in the Arctic Circle.
